Ps. Steve Spence Invite//
It's not often that we can have our key people and leaders exposed to great ministry input without having to go outside our region to get it. Well, that's what our next ACC Regional event is all about. The Conference will go over Friday night and Saturday and will be replacing our usual district day.
Workshops will be specifically conducted targeting some of the key ministry areas that we and our people carry in our local churches, for Pastors, Youth, Children and Music.
I truly believe this will be a great life building conference. So let me encourage you one again, Pastors, Leaders and Key Team, be a part of our September Regional Recharge. I'm convinced you will be inspired, encouraged and better skilled to do life well and to serve your church more effectively.
Ps. Steve Spence,
ACC North Coast District Leader.
